Deadline Trades Update

[now]

With all the new faces thrown in together in this spring's free-for-all "tryout" camp, I keep trying to remember who came in from which trade. So here's a recap, along with my thumbnail letter grades updated to reflect prospect status and progress to date in our system. Not that I'm any kind of expert in rankings, just giving one fan's take to provide a handy reference.

Thanks! I also have trouble keeping them straight.

It'll be fun to watch the trade tree expand over the next few years as we deal some of these guys. Wonder how much of the 2023 World Series-winning roster will be part of the 2018 deadline tree.

Yeah, lots of possibilities there especially with so many young prospects: half of the fifteen were age 22 or under at the time of the trade.

Thanks for putting this together. I think we’re all going to get confused in the future and think Drew Jackson came over in the Manny trade.

Drew Jackson was traded for (international cap money) after the Rule 5 draft. By all accounts he's a rule 5 guy for us.

International cap money you say? So he's part of the Gausman trade now, at least for me. So I feel better.

Good point; I've added the amounts to the OP. There are a few players to fill in for that excess money, who have been acquired since then. Tracking this part of the trade equation gets complicated!

That Gausman trade needs all the help it can get.  Can we get a mulligan on that one?

How can you tell if the slot money comes out of the O's slots they haven't used, the Brach slots they haven't used or the Gausman slots they haven't used?

The Gausman AND Britton trades looked (and still look) pretty bad to me. However, I hope some of those prospects really step up. Encarnacion, in particular, may show out.

We didn't deserve much for Britton.  Held on waaay too long.  I liked the MM and Schoop trades.  That Gaus mess was horrid from the jump though.

Yep he was expensive and not especially effective.
